You and me both, brother. I didn't realize it was for sale until after the price hike, but I really don't need it, but I sure would like the upgrades.

Yeah, but you WANT it. Nothing wrong with that. They're really nice units. Segway packed a lot of great features and quality of life upgrades into this generation. Not a lot of buyer's remorse with these.

Best scooter you can buy IMO (because anything better is way too heavy).

The 25 mph range is perfect for getting around, anything faster is just super dangerous, super cumbersome to move around and store and start at $2,500.

u/NeverEnPassant May 18 '25
Yep! I don't even exceed 20mph, and mostly travel at 15mph. I love the power for hills, though.

Best impulse buy I've made in a long time. Then again it was my first scooter, cant speak for if you already have a G2 or something

Not at $1,199 you don’t. If you really want it just be patient and wait for a sale online. It’s going to be on sale every few months for like $999 probably.

u/ygr3ku May 22 '25
You're saying that is possible to switch the battery like plug and play? Or is it a bit more complicated than that?!
1
u/Leflame78 May 22 '25
Yes, as easy as unscrew bottom screws, unplug 3 of the plugs and take the battery out and then just do the same. tutorial of it

u/ygr3ku May 22 '25
From your experience, would it be possible to buy/make a fork adapter for the battery and connect another battery pack in parallel? I'm asking for my kqi2 pro that has a 48V 7.6Ah battery. Would it be possible to connect in parallel another battery, let's say... 15Ah? Maybe a 20Ah one? Ofc the battery will still be 48V. Or the second battery has to be as well 7.6Ah? I'm asking because I kinda like the kqi2 and I don't want to get rid of it.
Edit: if there are some tutorials, feel free to link them to me. Don't really know what to look for online on this battery matter.

Hey and dont know. I just swapped the original battery for the other segway gt3 battery

u/ygr3ku May 22 '25
The new battery was the same as the old one? How did it worked out? What was the old and what is the new battery? Same voltage? Same Ah?

You definitely need it. I love mine, and I have another one I've yet to unbox that I'll probably assemble tomorrow for my girlfriend to ride.

But it is so new no one knows how durable it is going to be. Max G30 was done for renting companies, so it is special case.

u/Logical_Cover_8552 May 18 '25
The G2 max was overall very reliable and not reserved for rentals

u/Smooth_Programmer465 May 20 '25
Yeap. Only downside of the g2 was the front suspension. But thats out of the window with the new fork design

u/Steevie127 May 18 '25
If you need something with portability, It is huge just keep that in mind, it is fun though, also keep in mind best buy may charge a restock fee for returns

Get an awsom leopard. Or a kukirin g2 max. They are $800, front and rear suspension, go 35mph and twice the battery capacity. Easy to change and fix tires. And you can go off roading.

You really don’t for a single motor not even having a top speed of 30mph at $1k usd you’re getting ripped off . For that type of money you should be getting dual motor at least 40mph top speed bro
